Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath (Stella) novel Chapter 478

Stella was surprised. "Really? Your driving skills are something else. Fine, I'll get someone to tow you out."

Tegan begged, "You better hurry up. It's freezing out here."

It was one of those brutally cold days in Portis City. Snow, yet again, had blanketed the city, making Stella wonder what curse had befallen them this year. Snowfall was relentless, one storm after another.

Winters in Portis City were typically cold, sure, but never quite so snowy. Usually, it was just a dusting of snowflakes.

Hearing Tegan's plight, Stella glanced out the window. Yep, the snow was definitely piling up.

"Got it."

But why was Tegan in Misty Bay, anyway? They hadn’t planned on meeting today.

Hanging up, Stella turned to the butler. "Get someone to tow Tegan out. Her car got stuck."

The butler nodded. "Yes."

He quickly arranged for someone to assist.

Stella headed to the dining room for breakfast. The staff promptly served her favorite morning meal—soft, creamy oatmeal. But she barely had an appetite. Lately, nothing seemed to pique her interest.

...

Warmth and cold, two extremes were playing out in Misty Bay. After a brief inquiry about Jaxon, Stella let the matter drop. Those people didn’t matter to her. Her indifference mirrored the coldness they once showed her.

Stella was cozily tucked away in her warm, castle-like home while Jaxon waited outside Misty Bay’s gates. Even inside his car, the chill was palpable.
